Star Wars Kenner Action Figure Gift Given Three Decades Late

Here’s a funny Christmas story that will make toy collectors green with envy. Redditor OMGparty’s mother gave him this sealed Kenner action figure of Luke Skywalker in his X-wing pilot suit as a Christmas gift. Apparently she bought it for him “back in the ’80s”, but she “forgot about it in the back of a drawer.”

Looks like that drawer took good care of the toy and its card back. Not only is it in near perfect condition, it’s one of those Empire Strikes Back figures that mentions the upcoming release of “Revenge of the Jedi,” and offers a free action figure of Admiral Ackbar. While it’s not worth a million dollars, it’s still an awesome find.
